4. WHAT IS FISH FARMING
• Fish farming or pisciculture
involves raising fish commercially
in tanks or enclosures, usually for
food. It is the principal form of
aquaculture, while other methods
may fall under mariculture. ...
Worldwide, the most important
fish species used in fish farming
are carp, tilapia, salmon, and
catfish.

6. CANADA / SEAFOOD

• Canada's 2016 fish and seafood export values show that trade in this sector continues to grow. Canada
exported a record $6.6 billion worth of fish and seafood products in 2016, up 10 per cent from 2015. The
United States remains our largest export market, accounting for 65 per cent of our exports worth $4.3
billion. Canada is the largest supplier of fish and seafood to the United States, emphasizing the importance
of this trading partnership.
• Minister LeBlanc will take advantage of the presence of many fisheries associations and environmental non-
government organizations to hold a roundtable discussion on Canada's plan to achieve its marine
conservation targets by protecting 5 per cent of marine and coastal areas by 2017 and 10 per cent by 2020.
Marine protected areas support increased size, abundance and diversity of marine species, protect
spawning stocks and protect habitat critical to lifecycle stages which can help replenish fish stocks-all of
which can benefit Canada's fish and shellfish sector. Fisheries and Oceans Canada will continue to meet with
provinces and territories, Indigenous groups, the fishing industry, and other interested parties to discuss
their important role in conserving marine biodiversity and safeguarding the health of our oceans for future
generations.

7. TECHNOLOGY AND FISH FAMING

Over half of the world’s seafood is exported from developing countries. Much of
the catch is from small fishing boats, which are difficult to monitor and protect.
Commercial fishing in developing regions typically occurs within 30 miles from
land. Establishing a communication channel that can support hundreds of fishing
boats spread out over a large area is a challenge. Boats are small and lack
dependable power. Devices have to be both affordable and rugged.
Small boats spread out over a large remote area represent a challenge for
network designers. How many towers are needed and where should they be
located to offer enough usable capacity. Capacity is the number of devices that
can simultaneously be supported per tower or base-station.
The Orolia McMurdo Omnicom Solar Fishing Beacon uses Random Phase
Multiple Access (RPMA) technology. It is optimized for wireless machine-to-
machine communication. It is very spectrally efficient and moves a lot of data
per Hz of bandwidth. The low-power, wide-area (LPWA) connectivity is
provided by the Machine Network based on Ingenu’s RPMA technology.

8. IBM AND FISH FARMING

IBM first introduced the concept of BaaS last year but now it believes that its new
service is ready for prime time, and it’s hoping that it’s going to go down a storm with
developers who are busy building blockchain applications that audit, monitor,
support and track everything from the entire US military, all the way through to tuna
and pigs, Universal Basic Income (UBI) programs and foreign exchange trading.
